Before: Karen Childress says the worst things about her kitchen are it's not warm or user-friendly. She also really dislikes the white plastic cabinets and the lack of counter space.

After: Mint green walls, artwork and a cool center island made from a dry sink, door and broken plates along with sheet metal glued and screwed to the upper cabinet centers turn this cluttered space into a room with great personality.
Homeowner Karen Childress wants to give her kitchen the heart and soul it needs. Designer Karen McAloon, painter Danielle Hirsch and contractor Ian Read help her transform the dull, unattractive space into a warm, inviting room with vintage appeal in two days for next to no money!
